Abstract
A process for producing uniformly shaped chip-type products having a surface design thereon. The process provides chip-type products having a series of substantially parallel alternate arcuate ridges and grooves extending across both surfaces which effect a rippled appearance to the products wherein the rippled configuration is impressed only on one surface of the dough by a mill roll having an annularly grooved surface.

A method of forming chip-type products from a formulated dough material comprising
- a. sheeting said formulated dough material to form a coherent workable dough sheet;
- b. impressing a rippled configuration of substantially parallel arcuate ridges and grooves on only one surface of said dough sheet by passing said dough sheet through the nip of a pair of mill rolls, one of said rolls having a smooth surface and the other of said mill rolls having an annularly grooved surface;
- c. removing said surface-configured dough sheet from said mill rolls.
- d. cutting suitably shaped pieces from said surface-configured dough sheet;
- and
- e. cooking said dough pieces thereby to provide a crispy chip-type product having a series of distinct and substantially parallel arcuate ridges and grooves extending across both surfaces which effect a rippled appearance to said chip-type product.
